The Austrian Alpine Association and HANDL TYROL are mountain comrades.

Handl Tyrol is the official partner of the Austrian Alpine Association.  

The association is not only one of the largest associations in Austria but also opens up the beauty of the Alpine region to millions of tourists.

Handl Tyrol supports the association with its invaluable work of maintaining a network of 40,000 km of hiking trails and 241 cabin refuges.

According to Dr. Christian Wadsack, president of the association, the mountain trail network of the Austrian Alpine Association is the "world's largest sports facility and is available to the general public for physical and mental fitness".

With its commitment, Handl Tyrol is making a valuable contribution towards ensuring that access to the immense natural beauty of our mountains is maintained. Handl Tyrol is especially committed to the maintenance of refuge cabins as typical meeting places. Because what is nicer than relaxing in one of these cabins after a long hike and enjoying original Tyrolean Marend with Handl Tyrol ham, Kaminwurzerl Sausage and farmhouse roast!

HANDL TYROL's efforts in this regard also make it a little bit easier for you to enjoy the Marend, the traditional ham snack with HANDL TYROL.
